Charles Barkley stuck up for Drew Brees during Thursday night’s episode of Inside The NBA.
While Barkley said he didn’t agree with Brees’ recent comments on national anthem protests, he feels the “vitriol and animosity” towards Brees was “overkill”.
Barkley said he’s “never heard a bad word about Drew Brees in my life” and that “everybody on social media thinks they are God, judge and jury.”
Do you think the backlash against Brees has been over-the-top? Or was it warranted? Why does outrage seem to flare up so quickly on social media?
